- You are asked to pay a fee to apply for a scholarship.
- The scholarship is guaranteed.
- The scholarship is only available to a select few people.
- The scholarship is from an organization that you have never heard of.
- The scholarship is too good to be true.
If you see any of these warning signs, be wary of the scholarship. It is likely a scam.
